Allāhumma innī astakhīruka bi-‘ilmik, wa astaqdiruka bi-qudratik, wa as’aluka min faḍlika-l-‘aẓīm, fa-innaka taqdiru wa lā aqdir, wa ta‘lamu wa la a‘lam, wa Anta ‘Allāmu-l-ghuyūb. Allāhumma in kunta ta‘lamu anna hādha-l-amra khayrun lī fī dīnī wa ma‘āshī wa ‘āqibati amrī—or: ‘ājili amrī wa ājilihi—fa-qdurhu lī wa yassirhu lī, thumma bārik lī fīh, wa in kunta ta‘lamu anna hādha-l-amra sharrun lī fī dīnī wa ma‘āshī wa ‘āqibati amrī—or: fī ‘ājili amrī wa ājilihi—fa-ṣrifhu ‘annī wa-ṣrifnī ‘anhu wa-qdur lī-l-khayra ḥaythu kān, thumma arḍinī bīh.
WE RELATE FROM the Ṣaḥīḥ of al-Bukhārī that Jābir ibn ‘Abdullāh 
reported: “The Messenger of Allah 
used to teach us how to seek guidance in all our affairs, just as he would teach us a sūrah from the Qur’ān. He said: ‘When any one of you intends to do anything then he should perform two rak‘ahs of supererogatory ṣalāh. Then he should say: O Allah, I seek guidance from You through Your knowledge; I seek strength through Your omnipotence; and I implore You through Your immense grace. For You have power and I have no power, You know and I do not know, and You are the Knower of all unseen things. O Allah, if You know that this matter is good for me in my religion, my livelihood and my ultimate destiny (or he said: my immediate concern and its final outcome) then decree it for me, make it easy for me and bless me in it. But if You know that this matter is bad for me in my religion, my livelihood and my ultimate destiny (or he said: my immediate concern and its final outcome) then turn it away from me and turn me away from it and decree good for me wherever it may be, then make me pleased with it. Then you should mention your need.’” [1].
